Every Thursday night (7.45 for an 8pm start) from 25th Feb through to the 25th Mar we're going to be coming together as a church to study what it means to be Sacrificial Saints. Now, I know what you're thinking..."A lent course on how to be more sacrificial?! That sounds as much fun as sticking a fork in my eye!". Well, I'm hoping that this will be a very positive look at life in all its fullness to be honest. We all want more joy, peace, purpose, and fulfilment in life don't we? And alongside those things we all want less stress, anxiety, depression and ..well, rubbish affecting us every day. That's what this course is about. It's about embracing the positive stuff of God and the positive stuff of life, but from the Bible's way of doing things not the world's. You'll not be surprised to learn that the Bible's way of having a much more positive life comes through sacrifice. But sacrifice is a much more complex issue than just doing stuff you don't want to do and giving up money you don't have. Come along to the Lent course and learn about true Jesus-style sacrifice and discover how your life can be transformed into something wonderful.
